Leaving NT we drove along the highway and soon noticed the scenery change dramatically to towering jagged mountains and winding roads. Even the termite mounds changed from tall pointy mounds to fat round ones, resembling beehives.
The Spinifex grasses are back again and these often resemble pin cushions carpeting the landscape and sometimes on the mountains.
We visited Wyndham, an historic port town, the busy port services the Argyle diamond mine, exports live cattle, sugar and molasses as well as fuel and other goods.
They apparently sell the cheapest fuel there in the Kimberley, pity we didn’t know that before we filled up.The lookout, sitting on top of the Bastion Ranges has the most amazing views of the sea and the five rivers as well as the Kimberleys.
